Patent

CA 2120200

A seed and fertilizer boot is mounted on a conventional cultivator shank. The boot has side-by-side fertilizer and seed tubes. One tube leads to a downwardly and rearwardly sloping delivery spout while the other delivery tube projects below the delivery spout. A flat knife is mounted on the front of the straight delivery tube to form a narrow furrow immediately in front of the associated delivery tube for receiving seed or fertilizer from the tube. The knife is adjustable along the tube so that its depth can be adjusted to compensate for wear. A second knife extends along the front face of the delivery spout to form a second furrow immediately beside the first furrow. This closes the first furrow and packs the soil onto the planted seed or fertilizer. The second knife also provides a shallower furrow for planting fertilizer or seed as the case may be. Like the first knife, the second knife is adjustable. Where desired, a skid-type packer can be mounted on the shank to close the furrows.

Cette invention concerne un semoir-localisateur d'engrais à monter sur un bras de cultivateur standard. L'objet de l'invention comporte un tube semoir placé à côté d'un tube localisateur d'engrais. Un des tubes orienté vers le bas est coudé vers l'arrière et se termine par une buse tandis que l'autre, rectiligne, se termine plus bas que le premier. Un couteau plat monté sur la face avant du tube rectiligne sert à creuser un sillon étroit immédiatement en avant de celui-ci, sillon qui recevra soit la semence soit l'engrais. Ce couteau est réglable dans le sens vertical, c'est-à-dire en profondeur, pour compenser son usure. Un deuxième couteau monté celui-là sur la face avant de la buse inclinée vers l'arrière sert à creuser un deuxième sillon immédiatement à côté du premier. Ce faisant, ce couteau referme le premier sillon et tasse le sol sur la semence ou l'engrais. En même temps, il creuse un sillon moins profond où placer les semences ou de l'engrais, au choix. Il est réglable tout comme le premier couteau. Si l'on veut, on peut monter sur le bras du cultivateur un plombeur à patin pour refermer les sillons.
